I catch a train into work. There's a tight connection to the shuttle bus (2 min!). The train was late yesterday. It was late today. But to add insult to injury, after I'd got up from my seat to wait by the door (remember the tight connection), the guard made an announcement that we were being held up by a fault, and would be fifteen to twenty minutes late. So I went back to my seat. And then the train started up again, and we arrived just five minutes late, about three minutes after I'd gone back to my seat!
Grrrr.... and none of it counts as 'late' in terms of compensation, of course. Not late enough.
